WAXING POETIC III

I've taken an antique porcelain doll head and soldered various antique rhinestone components to it. 

Then I suspended an Art Deco rhinestone watch pendant and attached an Art Deco rose camphor glass chain to make it into a assemblage necklace.

I love the way it turned out.  I hope you do as well....

The Maiden's Last Dance-Carnet De Bal Assemblage Necklace

Here's a beautiful assemblage necklace featuring an Art Nouveau Carnet De Bal. A carnet de bal is French for book of dance.  It depicts a bouquet of chrysanthemums. This carnet de bal still retains its original telescopic pencil.

I took a length of heavy textured antique silver tone chain and combined it with sterling silver wire wrapped rock crystal and antique wood rosary beads. To close the piece, I've added an Art Deco rhinestone pot metal brooch and Victorian gutta percha t-bar.  Check it out!

WAXING POETIC





Newly listed to Metal Corset is this found object necklace.

It was made by combing various antique objects including an antique 1800s Society of Jesus Flaming Sacred Heart ex voto reliquary.

But the focal to this necklace is the antique German bisque doll. It is truly breathtaking and I have to admit, one of the most beautiful I've seen. It reminds me of the Venus de Milo.

Check it out!

Two Souls As One



An antique 1800s carved French meerschaum reliquary of The Virgin Mary and The Child Jesus captures the loving bond between mother and child.

Heart stopping Picasso Czech glass and crystal beads combined with ethnic carved bone beads accentuate the brass frame of the reliquary and the carved meerschaum.

Beautiful down to the last detail. Definitely a one of a kind necklace.

Framed meerschaum measures 2.75". Chain measures 10.5" closed.

Note: There is no domed glass.

MYSTERIOUS

I listed another dragonfly series assemblage necklace to my Etsy shop. The resin head is cast from a mold of an authentic vintage German doll head. I'm finding these reproduction doll heads to be quite versatile in the creating process.
